Learn React in 100 Days

Learning a new coding language can be daunting, stressful, and lonely. How would I know? Well, in 2015, I attended a 9-week coding bootcamp and learned Ruby on Rails. When I went on interviews, no one was impressed with my Ruby on Rails knowledge. I was told, “We are looking for Swift, PHP, or Objective-C developers”. I had to regroup, create a curriculum, and focus on learning the skills the industry demanded. I couldn’t afford attending another bootcamp so I taught myself. It would have been nice to hold on to the money I spent at the bootcamp but I decided to charge it to the “Invest In Yourself” game. Side note: Do research on the in-demand skills in your city before investing time or money into learning a coding language.

Within two weeks, Code100 gained 400+ members across 40+ countries. One word: WOAH! I am so thankful for this community and I can’t wait to learn more languages with them!

If you would like to join the React journey, I’ve included our 15-week plan below.
